conclusion significant functional performance deficits were observed in the fai group in all tests except single hop test with greater deficits observed in the fai-gw group. hence, these tests can be used to determine the presence of fai. however no deficits were identified for the test involving sagittal plane functional activities suggesting that this test can not be used as a criterion to di...

PROBLEM Due to the relative scarcity of crashes, there has consistently been a problem with analyses that use crashes as a criterion measure in their analyses. METHOD Previous analyses of the relationships between functional capacity measures and at-fault crash involvement for older drivers as reported in the NHTSA Model Driver Screening and Evaluation Program Final Technical Report have been...

Setting standards for medically based running analyses is necessary to ensure that runners receive a high-quality service from practitioners. Medical and training history, physical and functional tests, and motion analysis of running at self-selected and faster speeds are key features of a comprehensive analysis. Self-reported history and movement symmetry are critical factors that require foll...

Background: Surgical removal of malignancies may enhance the risk recurrence but mechanisms remain poorly understood. Neutrophils, first line responders after surgical stress, can facilitate cancer progression. Neutrophils expel nuclear DNA studded with proteins to form web-like structures known as Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) in response stress. Here we aim characterize role NETs prom...
